Yes it's all lip service
I am not so sure ... The US has economic 'power' still and no one really wants to play with them, bar the Chinese.
Will be an interesting few months.
I saw someone say that what Canada and Mexico gave was actually nothing new, there are 15,000 troops on the border already and they promised 10,000 as part of this, and Canada had already committed to similar amounts last year, but Trump didn't realise or didn't care as he'd paint it as a win anyway. Not sure if that's true or not.
Everything we announced was already announced in December under Biden.
This has galvanized Canadians like nothing I've ever seen and might even jeopardize the chances of the Conservatives winning the upcoming spring election.
What a massive cluster fuck.
Wait - you want the conservatives to win?
Not EVERYONE is slightly left of Trotsky on here
Oh god no. Anything but. But it was about as sure a thing as one could imagine before this crisis.
Now Polievre is struggling to regain his relevancy amidst the response of the present government and the Liberal leadership candidates and provincial premiers jostling for attention in the news cycle.
I guess no one is going to throw out stupid conspiracy theories on this one, eh?
🙂
In this case I don't think so, since Trump's antipathy for Trudeau and the Liberals is very well known.
Having a toady bootlicker like Polievre in charge would likely suit him fine.
